Hi and welcome to HCM,thank you for your query.
Without teratment you can expect very poor prognosis and life expoectancy would probably be just 1 or few months. unfortunately,even with therapy it is hard to predeict anything and there may not be some significant lige prolongation but it is worth of try no matter how disappointed are you at this point.
Wish you good health. Regards.
